Hi Sedat,

yes - I'm disappointed in the latest Twisted Logic also.
I hope that Edsel can produce a fixed version, otherwise I'll have to leave it out of my Amateur Championship this time round. :(

No problems at all with Twisted Logic 0.099x although I don't think much of its time management.
It spends heaps of time on moves early on, leaving itself having to play a lot of moves quickly in the lead up to the time control.

Regards, Graham.
